... oh, that was when Napoleon used polish army to fight the rebels in Madrid, right? (I've seen Goya's paintings in Prado, but I really can't remember the dates right now, sorry. Only that it happened in... May, was it? Argh, I'm really sorry.)
I've been to Italy multiple times, and I thought the people were very nice, actually! Same goes for the French, I've heard they're ignorant and obnoxious bastard, but if you're somewhere not-Paris and you try to speak French (as bad as it is), they get very smiley, nice and helpful. As for Spain... I've been to Madrid, Barcelona, and the coast near the border with France, but I didn't notice how the locals behaved for some reason XD;
But in most of the world, you usually know those nationalities XD The only part of that giant mixture I'm sure of is Belarussian... And, while having a hilarious bloodline, I think I'm Polish, born and raised, patriotic and such. Though how I manage to be patriotic without believing in ... national martyrism, I think it was, or without being nationalistic, it's beyond me. :'D
